At any rate, if you were unable to access Embrace Happy yesterday, I do apologise (watches tumbleweeds blow by). We should be back at full-strength… Continue reading 40 #embracehappy Acts- Day Two

We have UK residents, a participant from Spain, South Africa, Canada and several from the United States. It's awesome! I am writing out their cards by… Continue reading Send some Happy Mail

The internet is an amazingly wonderful place sometimes! It brings people together who would never have found each other otherwise. About a month ago, a fellow blogging friend alerted me to The Green Gables as one of the featured products was all about "Happy Post". Genius! Gabrielle Treanor, the creative genius behind The Green Gables… Continue reading The Green Gables- Happy Paper Club
